The Japanese stock market has reacted with only moderate losses by Tuesday afternoon after the Dow Jones industrial average plunged following off-the-cuff remarks by the Japanese prime minister on a visit to the United States.
Wall Street stocks fell sharply after a perceived threat by Japan to dump U-S bonds, alluded to in comments by Prime MinisterRyutaro Hashimoto.
This time it was Japan's turn to take some steam out of the U-S stock market.
A half-year after Federal Reserve ChairmanAlan Greenspan alarmed Japanese financial traders with his now-famous "irrational exuberance" code words for a possible interest- rate increase, Japanese Prime Minister Ryutaro Hashimoto showed he could wallop Wall Street.
In a seemingly off-the-cuff response to a question at Columbia University Monday, Hashimoto suggested Japan might sell some of its vast U-S Treasury bond holdings if the United States doesn't help Japan stabilise exchange rates between the dollar and the yen.
That would flood the market and increase the supply of dollars.
The remarks, made through an interpreter, didn't sound serious, but in a reflection of acute Wall Street nerves over how fast the stock market has risen, Hashimoto fed the worst point drop in the Dow Jones industrial average since the 508-point drop in the crash nearly a decade ago.
The mild reaction Tuesday in Japan when markets opened appeared to show Japanese traders were down playing the significance of Hashimoto's remarks.
Dollar and stock prices slipped only slightly by midday.
The benchmark Nikkei Stock Average of 225 selected issues shed 189-point-42 points, or 0-point-93 per cent, to 20,246-point-72 points at the end of the morning session.
Hashimoto's aides later said he was misunderstood.
They said he only wants close cooperation with the United States, a theme both
countries emphasised at the just-concluded Summit of the Eight.

This is a short video about the Tokyo Stock Exchange. There are no traders as the trade is perfomed fully electronically. So this is a quiet place.

Japanese/English
The Tokyo stock exchange bid farewell to floor trading on Friday and welcomed in computerised trading to take the world's second biggest economy into the year 2000.
During the late 1980s, the daily frenzy on the floor of the Tokyo Stock Exchange was a symbol of Japan's energetic economy.
But with the country in recession - stock exchange officials say using computers will be a more economical way of running the country's economy.
The end of an era for these workers, carrying out floor trading for the last time.
From tomorrow computers rather than people will be running the exchange.
The decision to make the change comes in the wake of the Asian financial crisis which has plunged Japan into recession.
The use of computers and cost-cutting are putting an end to the 120-year old tradition of face-to-face trading on Asia's largest exchange.
Floor trading is still done in New York and Frankfurt, Germany, but other major exchanges have already gone electronic.
Since 1986, stock exchanges in Hong Kong, Singapore, London, and Paris have closed their trading floors.
The last deal in the Tokyo Stock Exchange was made at 0300gmt on Friday.
Stock exchange officials held a special closing ceremony to mark the end of an era.
SOUNDBITE: (Japanese)
"It has been 120 years since the birth of stock market in this country. Since then, this trading floor has been the place where people meet and stock price to be determined and to be informed to public. This place has also been the symbol of economy."

Stocks have been traded on the Tokyo exchange since 1878, though the market was closed for almost four years from 1945 as the country focused its attention on waging war..
The huge open floor of the Tokyo bourse was once crowded with more than 2-thousand traders fighting for position as they used a complex sign language to buy and sell stocks.
On Friday, after the end of the trading day, a closing ceremony with confetti and party noisemakers was held.
A dozen securities-industry veterans demonstrated what is soon to be a lost art - trading by hand signals with which (m) millions of dollars worth of shares could be bought with the wave of a finger.
Securities companies began switching to faster and more reliable electronic trading systems in the early 1980s.
By last year, any Japanese stock could be bought and sold electronically while fewer than 10 percent could be traded directly on the floor.
Only about 100 employees still worked there and floor trading accounted for a scant 0.2 percent of Tokyo volume.
Trading floor veterans said the shift to computers was inevitable, especially because of the growing complexity of financial markets.

In today's market report...Tokyo stocks approached 13-months lows Tuesday, after the yen gained value against the dollar.
The greenback weakened after new data showed optimism among U.S. homebuilders at a near 18-month low, and a manufacturing gauge grew slower-than-expected.
Japanese exporters bore the selling brunt, amid expectations the yen would drop below 85 against the dollar on general risk aversion.
The Nikkei finished 0.4 percent down.
Sydney stocks were the region's outperformers, with banking and mining stocks leading the All-Ordinaries nearly one percent higher on upbeat comments on the domestic economy from the Australian central bank.
However, trading volumes were light ahead of a federal election due on Saturday.
Trading in Taiwan and Hong Kong was subdued with banking shares leading the Hang Seng slightly down at midday.
The market was also awaiting land auction results after property loan rules were tightened last week.
Seoul's KOSPI staged a late rally, boosted by gains in LG Electronics, and reported bidding interest in Hyundai Engineering and Construction.
The SouthKorean benchmark ended 0.7 percent up, after trading in rangebound territory earlier.

STORYLINE
As global competition between bourse operators intensifies, the Tokyo Stock Exchange is making a 1.1 (b) billion US dollar offer for its Osaka rival under a plan to join the two markets by January 2013.
The Tokyo Stock Exchange Group Inc. said on Tuesday it will pay 480-thousand yen (6,239 US dollars) for each share of Osaka Securities Exchange Co. in a tender offer.
The TSE wants to buy between half and two-thirds of OSE's 270-thousand issued shares.
The offer represents a 14 percent premium to OSE's closing price on Monday.
Japan's bourses are joining forces at a time of increasing competition and consolidation among the world's stock exchanges.
Deutsche Boerse and NYSE Euronext are awaiting European Union approval of their merger, which would create the world's largest exchange operator.
The Tokyo Stock Exchange is the world's No. 3 exchange by market capitalisation of its listed companies, behind NYSE Euronext and Nasdaq OMX Group Inc.
The two Japanese companies said in a joint statement the deal would bolster Japan's role as an international financial centre and serve as a "step toward the revitalisation of the Japanese economy."
"Japan will fall behind if we speak just of the differences between Tokyo and Osaka," TSE president Atsushi Saito told reporters at a joint news conference with Osaka Securities Exchange President Michio Yoneda in Tokyo.
"That is why I think merging Osaka, which is strong on derivatives, with Tokyo, which is strong on cash equity trading, will be best for Japan," he added.
The TSE dominates cash equity trading, while the OSE specialises in derivatives.
By integrating trading systems, they estimate savings of seven (b) billion yen (90.8 (m) million US dollars).
The resulting company will be known as Japan Exchange Group Inc.
Saito will serve as the new company's chief executive, while Yoneda will act as chief operating officer.

Stock exchange

A stock exchange or bourse is an exchange where stock brokers and traders can buy and/or sell stocks (also called shares), bonds, and other securities. Stock exchanges may also provide facilities for issue and redemption of securities and other financial instruments, and capital events including the payment of income and dividends. Securities traded on a stock exchange include stock issued by listed companies, unit trusts, derivatives, pooled investment products and bonds. Stock exchanges often function as "continuous auction" markets, with buyers and sellers consummating transactions at a central location, such as the floor of the exchange.

To be able to trade a security on a certain stock exchange, it must be listed there. Usually, there is a central location at least for record keeping, but trade is increasingly less linked to such a physical place, as modern markets use electronic networks, which gives them advantages of increased speed and reduced cost of transactions. Trade on an exchange is restricted to brokers who are members of the exchange. In recent years, various other trading venues, such as electronic communication networks, alternative trading systems and "dark pools" have taken much of the trading activity away from traditional stock exchanges.

Tokyo Stock Exchange

The Tokyo Stock Exchange(東京証券取引所,Tōkyō Shōken Torihikijo), which is called Tōshō(東証) or TSE for short, is a stock exchange located in Tokyo, Japan. It is the fourth largest stock exchange in the world by aggregate market capitalization of its listed companies. It had 2,292 listed companies with a combined market capitalization of US$4.09 trillion as of April 2015.

Structure

The TSE is incorporated as a kabushiki gaisha with nine directors, four auditors and eight executive officers. Its headquarters are located at 2-1 Nihonbashi-kabutocho (ja:日本橋兜町), Chūō, Tokyo, or "Kabutocho", which is the largest financial district in Japan. Its operating hours are from 8:00 to 11:30a.m., and from 12:30 to 5:00p.m. From April 24, 2006, the afternoon trading session started at its usual time of 12:30p.m..

Digital currency exchangers (aka DCEs or Bitcoin exchanges), businesses that allow customers to trade digital currencies for other assets, such as conventional fiat money, or different digital currencies

Stock

The stock (also capital stock) of a corporation constitutes the equity stake of its owners. It represents the residual assets of the company that would be due to stockholders after discharge of all senior claims such as secured and unsecured debt. Stockholders' equity cannot be withdrawn from the company in a way that is intended to be detrimental to the company's creditors.

Shares

The stock of a corporation is partitioned into shares, the total of which are stated at the time of business formation. Additional shares may subsequently be authorized by the existing shareholders and issued by the company. In some jurisdictions, each share of stock has a certain declared par value, which is a nominal accounting value used to represent the equity on the balance sheet of the corporation. In other jurisdictions, however, shares of stock may be issued without associated par value.

Shares represent a fraction of ownership in a business. A business may declare different types (classes) of shares, each having distinctive ownership rules, privileges, or share values. Ownership of shares may be documented by issuance of a stock certificate. A stock certificate is a legal document that specifies the amount of shares owned by the shareholder, and other specifics of the shares, such as the par value, if any, or the class of the shares.

JAPAN: TOKYO: STOCK MARKET RECOVERS AFTER CRASH

English/Nat
Tokyo stock prices surged on Wednesday morning following a dramatic rebound on Wall Street overnight.
The benchmark 225-issue Nikkei Stock Average jumped 564-point-93 points, or 3-point-46 percent, closing the morning session at 16,877-point-62.
On Tuesday, the average lost 725-point-67 points, or 4-point-26 percent.The U.S. dollar was lower against the yen.
Tokyo stocks rebounded following the overnight rally on Wall Street and stronger Nikkei futures on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange.
Electronics and banking issues led the rally, and foreign and domestic institutional investors were among the most active buyers, traders said.
The market was also buoyed up by arbitrage buying following higher futures prices, traders said.
The rebound followed an overnight upswing in New York, where the Dow Jones industrial average registered its biggest ever one-day gain of 337-point-17 points.
Japan's finance minister reiterated Wednesday that the country's economy is sound as reflected by the morning rebound on the Tokyo Stock Exchange.
Analysts, however,say market sentiment remains cautious in Tokyo as investors remain wary about the direction of theHong Kong market and the health of Southeast Asian economies.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"The big rebounding in New York is a very positive news for Tokyo Stock Exchange as well. However the rebounding is not quite as significant as New York. That underlines the differences in fundamentals between the U.S. and Japanese economy in my view. But nevertheless, the fact is that the continuous declines in Tokyo Stock Exchange to some extent was broken by yesterday's news. I guess that we were reminded again that New York stock exchange determines the world stock markets' trend.
SUPERCAPTION: Mineko Sasaki-Smith, Chief economist, CS First BostonTraders said that persistent worries that Japan's economic recovery continues to dampen sentiment.
The broader Tokyo StockPrice Index of all issues listed on the first section was up 46-point-11 points, or 3-point-65 percent, to 1,309-point-22.
The TOPIX closed down 49-point-34 points, or 3-point-76 percent Tuesday.
On the foreign exchange market, the dollar was traded at 120-point-55 yen, down 0-point-37 yen from late in Tokyo on Tuesday but above its late New York level of 120-point-47 yen overnight.
The yield on the benchmark No. 182 10-year Japanese government bond rose to 1-point-650 percent from 1-point-625 percent Tuesday, driving its price down to 109-point-41 yen from 109-point-61 yen.

How Does the Tokyo Stock Exchange Work? Finance, Traders (1990)

How Does the Tokyo Stock Exchange Work? Finance, Traders (1990)

How Does the Tokyo Stock Exchange Work? Finance, Traders (1990)

The Tokyo Stock Exchange (東京証券取引所 Tōkyō Shōken Torihikijo), which is called Tōshō (東証) or TSE for short, is a stock exchange located in Tokyo, Japan. It is the second largest stock exchange in the world by aggregate market capitalization of its listed companies. It had 2,292 listed companies with a combined market capitalization of US$4.5 trillion as of November 2013.
In July 2012 a planned merger with the Osaka Securities Exchange was approved by the Japan Fair Trade Commission. The resulting entity, the Japan Exchange Group (JPX) (日本取引所グループ Nihon Torihikijo Gurūpu), was launched on January 1, 2013.
The TSE is incorporated as a kabushiki gaisha with nine directors, four auditors and eight executive officers. Its headquarters are located at 2-1 Nihonbashi-kabutocho (ja:日本橋兜町), Chūō, Tokyo, or "Kabutocho", which is the largest financial district in Japan.

STORYLINE:
Japan opened its stock exchange for the first time in 2013, ringing in the new years with triple digit gains on Friday after being closed for extended holidays.
The benchmark Nikkei Average opening the year's trading at 10,604.50, up 209.32 from last year's close.
Shares rose across the board as investors were relieved that lawmakers in the US passed a bill to avoid a combination of government spending cuts and tax increases called the "fiscal cliff," as well as hopes that the Bank of Japan may ease monetary policy further.
Last year, Japanese stocks were weighed down by the yen's prolonged advance against the US dollar and a struggling economy marred by the earthquake and tsunami disaster of March 2011.
The Japan Exchange Group Inc. (JPX) is the holding company of the Tokyo and Osaka bourses, launched on 1 January.
The two bourses complement each other; the TSE dominates cash equity trading, while the OSE specialises in derivatives.
By integrating trading systems, JPX estimates a saving of 7 billion yen (90.8 million US dollars).

Tokyo Stock Exchange market moved up cautiously on Thursday following the better than expected US economic data and a surge on Wall Street overnight.
The benchmark Nikkei 225 stock index gained 43.10 points, or 0.51 per cent, to 8,523.09 points on the Tokyo Stock Exchange at the end of morning trading.
The gains came on the heels of the Dow Jones Industrial Average rising 1.2 percent to 7,750 in volatile trading in New York on Wednesday, on news that new homes sales rebounded by 4.7 percent last month from January's record low.
It was the fifth "better than expected" housing report in eight days, according to IHS Global Insight.
The USCommerce Department also said demand for durable goods had grown 3.4 percent in February, its first gain in six months, suggesting that consumer purchases may be reviving.
The upbeat economic data brought steep gains on Wall Street on Wednesday morning, but weak demand at a government debt auction later raised concern the US may have trouble raising the hundreds of billions of dollars its needs for its economic rescue plan.

NaturalSound
The Japanese stock market has reacted with only moderate losses by Tuesday afternoon after the Dow Jones industrial average plunged following off-the-cuff remarks by the Japanese prime minister on a visit to the United States.
Wall Street stocks fell sharply after a perceived threat by Japan to dump U-S bonds, alluded to in comments by Prime MinisterRyutaro Hashimoto.
This time it was Japan's turn to take some steam out of the U-S stock market.
A half-year after Federal Reserve ChairmanAlan Greenspan alarmed Japanese financial traders with his now-famous "irrational exuberance" code words for a possible interest- rate increase, Japanese Prime Minister Ryutaro Hashimoto showed he could wallop Wall Street.
In a seemingly off-the-cuff response to a question at Columbia University Monday, Hashimoto suggested Japan might sell some of its vast U-S Treasury bond holdings if the United States doesn't help Japan stabilise exchange rates between the dollar and the yen.
That would flood the market and increase the supply of dollars.
The remarks, made through an interpreter, didn't sound serious, but in a reflection of acute Wall Street nerves over how fast the stock market has risen, Hashimoto fed the worst point drop in the Dow Jones industrial average since the 508-point drop in the crash nearly a decade ago.
The mild reaction Tuesday in Japan when markets opened appeared to show Japanese traders were down playing the significance of Hashimoto's remarks.
Dollar and stock prices slipped only slightly by midday.
The benchmark Nikkei Stock Average of 225 selected issues shed 189-point-42 points, or 0-point-93 per cent, to 20,246-point-72 points at the end of the morning session.
Hashimoto's aides later said he was misunderstood.
They said he only wants close cooperation with the United States, a theme both
countries emphasised at the just-concluded Summit of the Eight.

By last year, any Japanese stock could be bought and sold electronically while fewer than 10 percent could be traded directly on the floor.

STORYLINE
As global competition between bourse operators intensifies, the Tokyo Stock Exchange is making a 1.1 (b) billion US dollar offer for its Osaka rival under a plan to join the two markets by January 2013.
The Tokyo Stock Exchange Group Inc. said on Tuesday it will pay 480-thousand yen (6,239 US dollars) for each share of Osaka Securities Exchange Co. in a tender offer.
The TSE wants to buy between half and two-thirds of OSE's 270-thousand issued shares.
The offer represents a 14 percent premium to OSE's closing price on Monday.
Japan's bourses are joining forces at a time of increasing competition and consolidation among the world's stock exchanges.
Deutsche Boerse and NYSE Euronext are awaiting European Union approval of their merger, which would create the world's largest exchange operator.
The Tokyo Stock Exchange is the world's No. 3 exchange by market capitalisation of its listed companies, behind NYSE Euronext and Nasdaq OMX Group Inc.
The two Japanese companies said in a joint statement the deal would bolster Japan's role as an international financial centre and serve as a "step toward the revitalisation of the Japanese economy."
"Japan will fall behind if we speak just of the differences between Tokyo and Osaka," TSE president Atsushi Saito told reporters at a joint news conference with Osaka Securities Exchange President Michio Yoneda in Tokyo.
"That is why I think merging Osaka, which is strong on derivatives, with Tokyo, which is strong on cash equity trading, will be best for Japan," he added.
The TSE dominates cash equity trading, while the OSE specialises in derivatives.
By integrating trading systems, they estimate savings of seven (b) billion yen (90.8 (m) million US dollars).
The resulting company will be known as Japan Exchange Group Inc.
Saito will serve as the new company's chief executive, while Yoneda will act as chief operating officer.

STORYLINE
As global competition between bourse operators intensifies, the Tokyo Stock Exchange is making a 1.1 (b) billion US dollar offer for its Osaka rival under a plan to join the two markets by January 2013.
The Tokyo Stock Exchange Group Inc. said on Tuesday it will pay 480-thousand yen (6,239 US dollars) for each share of Osaka Securities Exchange Co. in a tender offer.
The TSE wants to buy between half and two-thirds of OSE's 270-thousand issued shares.
The offer represents a 14 percent premium to OSE's closing price on Monday.
Japan's bourses are joining forces at a time of increasing competition and consolidation among the world's stock exchanges.
Deutsche Boerse and NYSE Euronext are awaiting European Union approval of their merger, which would create the world's largest exchange operator.
The Tokyo Stock Exchange is the world's No. 3 exchange by market capitalisation of its listed companies, behind NYSE Euronext and Nasdaq OMX Group Inc.
The two Japanese companies said in a joint statement the deal would bolster Japan's role as an international financial centre and serve as a "step toward the revitalisation of the Japanese economy."
"Japan will fall behind if we speak just of the differences between Tokyo and Osaka," TSE president Atsushi Saito told reporters at a joint news conference with Osaka Securities Exchange President Michio Yoneda in Tokyo.
"That is why I think merging Osaka, which is strong on derivatives, with Tokyo, which is strong on cash equity trading, will be best for Japan," he added.
The TSE dominates cash equity trading, while the OSE specialises in derivatives.
By integrating trading systems, they estimate savings of seven (b) billion yen (90.8 (m) million US dollars).
The resulting company will be known as Japan Exchange Group Inc.
Saito will serve as the new company's chief executive, while Yoneda will act as chief operating officer.

NaturalSoundThe NikkeiStock Average closed at 17,534.44 points, down 195.90 points, or 1.10 per cent, on the Tokyo Stock Exchange on Friday.
The dollar traded lower against the yen on Friday buying 117.26 yen, down 1.18 yen from late on Thursday in Tokyo.
Traders said the dollar was under selling pressure amid renewed concerns of U-S inflation sparked by U-S Federal Reserve ChairmanAlan Greenspan warnings about what he called "euphoria" in the markets.
Proof if it was needed of how inextricably bound are the world's financial markets.
U-S Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan on Thursday's warnings about over-valuation of U-S share prices sent stocks tumbling on Wall Street.
It also saw the dollar fall relative to the yen.
Far from being good news for Japan, this makes Japanese exports more expensive and hinders Japan's efforts to struggle out of a long recession.
Japanese stocks closed 1.1 per cent down at 17534.44.

English/Nat
Tokyo stock prices surged on Wednesday morning following a dramatic rebound on Wall Street overnight.
The benchmark 225-issue Nikkei Stock Average jumped 564-point-93 points, or 3-point-46 percent, closing the morning session at 16,877-point-62.
On Tuesday, the average lost 725-point-67 points, or 4-point-26 percent.The U.S. dollar was lower against the yen.
Tokyo stocks rebounded following the overnight rally on Wall Street and stronger Nikkei futures on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange.
Electronics and banking issues led the rally, and foreign and domestic institutional investors were among the most active buyers, traders said.
The market was also buoyed up by arbitrage buying following higher futures prices, traders said.
The rebound followed an overnight upswing in New York, where the Dow Jones industrial average registered its biggest ever one-day gain of 337-point-17 points.
Japan's finance minister reiterated Wednesday that the country's economy is sound as reflected by the morning rebound on the Tokyo Stock Exchange.
Analysts, however,say market sentiment remains cautious in Tokyo as investors remain wary about the direction of theHong Kong market and the health of Southeast Asian economies.
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"The big rebounding in New York is a very positive news for Tokyo Stock Exchange as well. However the rebounding is not quite as significant as New York. That underlines the differences in fundamentals between the U.S. and Japanese economy in my view. But nevertheless, the fact is that the continuous declines in Tokyo Stock Exchange to some extent was broken by yesterday's news. I guess that we were reminded again that New York stock exchange determines the world stock markets' trend.
SUPERCAPTION: Mineko Sasaki-Smith, Chief economist, CS First BostonTraders said that persistent worries that Japan's economic recovery continues to dampen sentiment.
The broader Tokyo StockPrice Index of all issues listed on the first section was up 46-point-11 points, or 3-point-65 percent, to 1,309-point-22.
The TOPIX closed down 49-point-34 points, or 3-point-76 percent Tuesday.
On the foreign exchange market, the dollar was traded at 120-point-55 yen, down 0-point-37 yen from late in Tokyo on Tuesday but above its late New York level of 120-point-47 yen overnight.
The yield on the benchmark No. 182 10-year Japanese government bond rose to 1-point-650 percent from 1-point-625 percent Tuesday, driving its price down to 109-point-41 yen from 109-point-61 yen.

The Tokyo Stock Exchange (東京証券取引所 Tōkyō Shōken Torihikijo), which is called Tōshō (東証) or TSE for short, is a stock exchange located in Tokyo, Japan. It is the second largest stock exchange in the world by aggregate market capitalization of its listed companies. It had 2,292 listed companies with a combined market capitalization of US$4.5 trillion as of November 2013.
In July 2012 a planned merger with the Osaka Securities Exchange was approved by the Japan Fair Trade Commission. The resulting entity, the Japan Exchange Group (JPX) (日本取引所グループ Nihon Torihikijo Gurūpu), was launched on January 1, 2013.
The TSE is incorporated as a kabushiki gaisha with nine directors, four auditors and eight executive officers. Its headquarters are located at 2-1 Nihonbashi-kabutocho (ja:日本橋兜町), Chūō, Tokyo, or "Kabutocho", which is the largest financial district in Japan. Its operating hours are from 8:00 to 11:30 a.m., and from 12:30 to 5:00 p.m. From April 24, 2006, the afternoon trading session started at its usual time of 12:30 p.m..
Stocks listed on the TSE are separated into the FirstSection for large companies, the Second Section for mid-sized companies, and the Mothers (Market of the high-growth and emerging stocks) (ja:マザーズ?)[4] section for high-growth startup companies. As ofOctober 31, 2010, there are 1,675 First Section companies, 437 Second Section companies and 182 Mothers companies.[5]
The main indices tracking the TSE are the Nikkei 225 index of companies selected by the Nihon Keizai Shimbun (Japan's largest business newspaper), the TOPIX index based on the share prices of First Section companies, and the J30 index of large industrial companies maintained by Japan's major broadsheet newspapers.
Ninety-four domestic and 10 foreign securities companies participate in TSE trading. See: Members of the Tokyo Stock Exchange
Other TSE-related institutions include:
The exchange's press club, called the KabutoClub (ja:兜倶楽部 Kabuto kurabu?), which meets on the third floor of the TSE building. Most Kabuto Club members are affiliated with the Nihon Keizai Shimbun, Kyodo News, Jiji Press, or business television broadcasters such as Bloomberg LP and CNBC. The Kabuto Club is generally busiest during April and May, when public companies release their annual accounts.
On 15 June 2007, the TSE paid $303 million to acquire a 4.99% stake in Singapore ExchangeLtd.
The Tokyo Stock Exchange was established on May 15, 1878, as the Tokyo Kabushiki Torihikijo (東京株式取引所) under the direction of then-Finance MinisterOkuma Shigenobu and capitalist advocate Shibusawa Eiichi. Trading began on June 1, 1878.
In 1943, the exchange was combined with ten other stock exchanges in major Japanese cities to form a single JapaneseStock Exchange (ja:日本証券取引所 Nippon Shōken Torihikisho). The combined exchange was shut down and reorganized shortly after the bombing of Nagasaki.

14. Wide of the exchange
STORYLINE:
Japan opened its stock exchange for the first time in 2013, ringing in the new years with triple digit gains on Friday after being closed for extended holidays.
The benchmark Nikkei Average opening the year's trading at 10,604.50, up 209.32 from last year's close.
Shares rose across the board as investors were relieved that lawmakers in the US passed a bill to avoid a combination of government spending cuts and tax increases called the "fiscal cliff," as well as hopes that the Bank of Japan may ease monetary policy further.
Last year, Japanese stocks were weighed down by the yen's prolonged advance against the US dollar and a struggling economy marred by the earthquake and tsunami disaster of March 2011.
The Japan Exchange Group Inc. (JPX) is the holding company of the Tokyo and Osaka bourses, launched on 1 January.
The two bourses complement each other; the TSE dominates cash equity trading, while the OSE specialises in derivatives.
By integrating trading systems, JPX estimates a saving of 7 billion yen (90.8 million US dollars).

STORYLINE
Tokyo Stock Exchange market moved up cautiously on Thursday following the better than expected US economic data and a surge on Wall Street overnight.
The benchmark Nikkei 225 stock index gained 43.10 points, or 0.51 per cent, to 8,523.09 points on the Tokyo Stock Exchange at the end of morning trading.
The gains came on the heels of the Dow Jones Industrial Average rising 1.2 percent to 7,750 in volatile trading in New York on Wednesday, on news that new homes sales rebounded by 4.7 percent last month from January's record low.
It was the fifth "better than expected" housing report in eight days, according to IHS Global Insight.
The USCommerce Department also said demand for durable goods had grown 3.4 percent in February, its first gain in six months, suggesting that consumer purchases may be reviving.
The upbeat economic data brought steep gains on Wall Street on Wednesday morning, but weak demand at a government debt auction later raised concern the US may have trouble raising the hundreds of billions of dollars its needs for its economic rescue plan.

2017-09-25 TOKYO STOCK EXCHANGE

The flow of wealth like a mighty river
goes where it wants to go.
Let's take a sounding of the river
And measure the path of its flow.

JGBs slip on rallying Tokyo stocks, weaker Treasuries

TOKYO, June 20 (Reuters) - Japanese government bond prices slipped on Tuesday as the market was pressured by rallying Tokyo shares and an overnight retreat in U.S. Treasuries, although firm demand at a liquidity-enhancing debt auction helped limit losses.
The benchmark 10-year yield rose half a basis point to 0.055 percent. The 20-year yield was last unchanged at 0.560 percent after rising to 0.570 percent earlier in the session.
The finance ministry offered 500 billion yen ($4.48 billion)of off-the-run JGBs on Tuesday, which was seen to have attracted short-covering demand from investors. The ministry regularly conducts such auctions designed to improve market liquidity.
The Nikkei rose to a near two-year peak on a weaker yen and an overnight rise by the S&amp;P 500 and the Dow to re

Alan Greenspan: Tokyo Stock Market & the U.S. Economy (1992)

The Tokyo Stock Exchange reopened under its current Japanese name on May 16, 1949, pursuant to the new Securities Exchange Act.
The TSE runup from 1983 to 1990 was unprecedented, in 1990 it accounted for over 60% of the world's stock market capitalization (by far the world's largest) before falling precipitously in value and rankings today, but still remains one of the 3 largest exchanges in the world by market capitalization of listed shares.
The current TSE building was opened on May 23, 1988, replacing the original TSE building from 1931, and the trading floor of the TSE was closed on April 30, 1999, so that the exchange could switch to electronic trading for all transactions. A new facility, called TSE Arrows (ja:東証アローズ Tōshō Arrows?), opened on May 9, 2000. In 2010, the TSE launched...

Japanology Plus 2017 02 23 Tokyo Rail Network

Tokyo’s rail network ranks among the most complex transport systems in the world. Even residents of New York, Paris, London, or other cities known for extensive rail systems may initially find Japan’s capital a somewhat daunting prospect to navigate, but every effort is made to ensure that the commuter experience is as smooth as possible.
Maps at each station clearly display station names and fares in Japanese and English. In many cases they also offer information about the time between individual stations on a given line, and even the best position to board your train to be as close as possible to the required exit at your destination. Various lines have now begun to implement a simple system of code numbers to further help visitors to identify each station without having to learn its ac...

Tokyo's Secret Island ★ ONLY in JAPAN

Jurassic Park may be the first thing that comes to mind when you see Aogashima Island from the air - but yes, THIS ISTOKYO!
It's famous for having a volcano inside a volcano surrounded by dense jungle. It's also considered the smallest town in Japan and the hardest place in Japan to get to. There is no direct transportation to Aogashima. These facts are what make Aogashima the best kept secret in Tokyo!
The island is unspoiled.
The pristine jungles and beautiful ocean views are like scenes from the movies.
HOW TO GET TO AOGASHIMA
Air
▶︎ Haneda Airport (Tokyo) to Hachijojima / 50 minutes
▶︎ Helicopter to Aogashima - 20 minutes / 11,530 Yen
Note: You have to take the first flight to catch the helicopter or spend the night. Only 1 helicopter flight per day.

The Tokyo Stock Exchange reopened under its current Japanese name on May 16, 1949, pursuant to the new Securities Exchange Act.
The TSE runup from 1983 to 1990 was unprecedented, in 1990 it accounted for over 60% of the world's stock market capitalization (by far the world's largest) before falling precipitously in value and rankings today, but still remains one of the 3 largest exchanges in the world by market capitalization of listed shares.
The current TSE building was opened on May 23, 1988, replacing the original TSE building from 1931, and the trading floor of the TSE was closed on April 30, 1999, so that the exchange could switch to electronic trading for all transactions. A new facility, called TSE Arrows (ja:東証アローズ Tōshō Arrows?), opened on May 9, 2000. In 2010, the TSE launched its Arrowhead trading facility. [7]
In 2001, the TSE restructured itself as a stock company: before this time, it was structured as an incorporated association (ja:社団法人 shadan hōjin?) with its members as shareholders.
The exchange was only able to operate for 90 minutes on November 1, 2005, due to bugs with a newly installed transactions system, developed by Fujitsu, which was supposed to help cope with higher trading volumes. The interruption in trading was the worst in the history of the exchange.[8] Trading was suspended for four-and-a-half hours.
During the initial public offering of advertising giant Dentsu, in December 2001, a trader at UBS Warburg, the Swiss investment bank, sent an order to sell 610,000 shares in this company at ¥1 each, while he intended to sell 1 share at ¥610,000. The bank lost £71 million.[9]
During yet another initial public offering, that of J-Com, on December 8, 2005, an employee at Mizuho Securities Co., Ltd. mistakenly typed an order to sell 600,000 shares at ¥1, instead of an order to sell 1 share at ¥600,000. Mizuho failed to catch the error; the Tokyo Stock Exchange initially blocked attempts to cancel the order, resulting in a net loss of US$347 million to be shared between the exchange and Mizuho. Both companies are now trying to deal with their troubles: lack of error checking, lack of safeguards, lack of reliability, lack of transparency, lack of testing, loss of confidence, and loss of profits. On 11 December, the TSE acknowledged that its system was at fault in the Mizuho trade. On 21 December, Takuo Tsurushima, chief executive of the TSE, and two other senior executives resigned over the Mizuho affair.[8][10][11][12][13][14][15][16]
On January 17, 2006, the Nikkei 225 fell 2.8%, its fastest drop in nine months, as investors sold stocks across the board in the wake of a raid by prosecutors on internet company livedoor. The Tokyo Stock Exchange closed early on January 18 due to the trade volume threatening to exceed the exchange's computer system's capacity of 4.5 million trades per day. This was called the "livedoor shock". The exchange quickly increased its order capacity to five million trades a day.
The exchange's normal trading sessions are from 09:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. and from 12:30 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. on all days of the week except Saturdays, Sundays and holidays declared by the Exchange in advance.[18] The exchange is closed for the following holidays: New Year's Day, Coming of Age Day, National Foundation Day, Vernal Equinox Day, Shōwa Day, Constitution Memorial Day, Greenery Day, Children's Day, Marine Day, Respect for the Aged Day, Autumnal Equinox, Health and Sports Day, Culture Day, Labour Thanksgiving Day, and The Emperor's Birthday.
The London Stock Exchange (LSE) and the TSE are developing jointly traded products and share technology, marking the latest cross-border deal among bourses as international competition heats up. The TSE is also looking for some partners in Asia, and more specifically is seeking an alliance with the Singapore Exchange (SGX), which is considered as becoming a leading financial hub in the Asia-Pacific region. Recently[when?], some rumors close to the deal suggest that the TSE is preparing for a takeover of the SGX, or at least take a major stake, in the first semester of 2008. The TSE has already acquired a 5% stake in the SGX as of June 2007, deemed to be only the beginning of greater participation.
In July 2008 the London Stock Exchange (LSE) and the TSE announced a new joint venture Tokyo-based market, which will be based on the LSE's Alternative Investment Market (AIM).

Welcome on the YurikamomeLine in Tokyo!
Let's visit the Bay of Tokyo, Odaiba and the Rainbow Bridge.
You can use the annotations @ 0:17 to jump directly to a certain part of this video.
The Yurikamome Line is an automated guideway transit service operated by the Tokyo Waterfront New TransitCorporation. It extends from Shimbashi in Tokyo's special ward Minato to Toyosu in Kōtō. Its trains run with rubber-tired wheels on elevated track guided by the side walls.
The line connects the past with the future:
Shimbashi was the terminus of the first Japanese Railway (Tokyo Shimbashi - YokohamaSakuragicho) in 1872, while Odaiba stands for development and technical advance.
The Yurikamome is very popular as it serves the artificial island Odaiba, a major commercial, residential and leisure area, surrounded by the Bay of Tokyo. Odaiba is a must-see for tourists - it features futuristic shopping palaces, attraction parks and lovely beaches. The popular TV series "Bayside Shakedown" (1998) has taken place in Odaiba, when it was under development.
Odaiba is connected to central Tokyo by the Rainbow Bridge, a famous suspension bridge.The Yurikamome tracks are placed on its lower level - to reach this level there is a spectacular 270° loop at the northern end of the bridge.
Over the years the Yurikamome has become an attraction in itself!
It was Tokyo's first fully automated transit system, operated without any drivers.
As a result the front seats are extremely popular, they feature superb views of Tokyo. (I had to wait for the third train to get this unlimited view^^)
Opened in 1995 between Shimbashi and Ariake the line has been eventually extended to Toyosu in 2006.
After opening of the private TWR Rinkai Line - which is connecting Odaibo to the western parts of Tokyo - ridership on the Yurikamome Line has declined slowly.
In the future this line could be extended to Kachidoki (possible connection to the Toei Oedo line). New trains (7300 series) are scheduled to be introduced until 2016.
The line is named after the black-headed seagull ('yurikamome' in Japanese), a common denizen of Tokyo Bay and the official prefectural bird.

This video shows the route - stations - trains and the surroundings of the Yurikamome Line with many different perspectives and locations.
I'm sorry for some shaky footages. As being a tourist by myself I had only a huge tripod with me, but the trains were pretty crowded, so I couldn't use it in them.
I hope you like though ;)

## Stock Trading Courses
The Bulls on Wall Street trading courses teach the day trading strategies and swing trading strategies we use every day. Our courses will show you how to use technical analysis and chart patterns to find low risk, high reward stock trading opportunities. The Bulls Bootcamp stock trading course also includes a stock trading simulator, so you can practice what you've learned by paper trading, before trading live. Acquiring a high quality stock trading education is a must for anyone who aspires to day or swing trade stocks profitably.
## Day Trading Stocks
A day trader is someone who buys and sells one or more stocks within the market hours of a single day. As day traders, we use stock scanning software to find new intraday stock trading opportunities every day. This allows us to trade the most active momentum stocks, taking advantage of low risk, high reward opportunities and then moving on. Our day trading service will not only alert you when we make trades, but also teach you the trading strategies we used to find and execute those trades.
## Swing Trading Stocks
A swing trader buys a stock with a plan to hold it for several days or weeks. Our swing trading service teaches you the swing trading strategies we use to find and trade stocks. As a swing trading service subscriber, you will also receive trade alerts, market analysis, and swing trading how to videos. Swing trading is a great choice for anyone with a full time job, as it doesn't require you to sit at your computer during market hours.
